About this title

Synopsis

This revised, up-to-date (April 2022) and not-for-profit guide for self-publishing authors draws on the experiences of London’s independent ebook and pre-press print-on-demand production house and the questions most often asked by clients.

The main topics covered by discrete sections on self-publishing ebooks, and POD paperback and hardback books, include safeguarding your copyright, preparing your manuscript, formatting, how an ebook is made, typesetting, POD options, sales and distribution, calculating royalties, and promotion and publicity.

The appendices include a comprehensive directory of organisations, service providers, publications and other resources of particular interest to self-publishing authors.
